Subject: Champs

James Rossen asks about a silverface Champ.

- -quality compared to earlier champs

I'm not aware that the circuitry of the Champ changed from the blackface
to the silverface models. (tweeds are a different circuit) There may be
some quality variations in later Champs.

- -areas of concern for this amp

Is it clean? Has anyone messed with the innards? It may need new
tubes, but that isn't reallya problem.

- -typical prices

100 to 200 bucks

- -other potentially helpful info

Champs are usually very good harp amps, but aren't big or loud.
